12 Years Promise is a popular Korean drama that aired in 2014 and stars actors So-yeon Lee, Min Namkoong, and Chong-ok Bae in the main roles. This show tells the story of a woman named Han Yoo-kyung who has to deal with the consequences of her past actions that have led to her being separated from her family for 12 years.

At the age of 19, Yoo-kyung falls in love with another man named Kang Bong-goo while still in a relationship with her childhood sweetheart, Lee Sang-min. In a moment of weakness, she has an affair with Bong-goo and ends up getting pregnant. Sang-min, her boyfriend at the time, is devastated and decides to end their relationship. Yoo-kyung, now emotionally distraught, makes the difficult decision to give up her child for adoption without telling Sang-min about it.

Fast forward 12 years later, Yoo-kyung is now a successful career woman and has since married another man. However, she still carries the guilt and pain of losing her child and being separated from her family. Things take a turn when her adopted daughter, Choi Yoon-jung, makes contact with her after discovering her true identity.

Yoon-jung is now living with her biological father, Lee Sang-min, who is a single dad working hard to provide for his daughter. Yoo-kyung is over the moon to be reunited with her long-lost daughter but is afraid to tell her the truth about her past. She is torn between telling the truth and risking losing her daughter or keeping the secret and living with the guilt.

The arrival of Yoon-jung also reignites Yoo-kyung's feelings for Sang-min, adding another layer of complexity to the story. Sang-min, still hurt by Yoo-kyung's betrayal, struggles with his feelings and his loyalty to his daughter.

As the story progresses, Yoo-kyung must confront the consequences of her past actions, come to terms with her current situation, and make difficult decisions that will impact the lives of everyone around her.

The acting in 12 Years Promise is top-notch, with standout performances from Lee, Namkoong, and Bae. The script is well-written, with plenty of emotional highs and lows that keep the viewers engaged throughout the series. The show touches on themes such as love, family, forgiveness, and redemption, providing a poignant and thought-provoking story that resonates with the audience.

Overall, 12 Years Promise is an excellently crafted Korean drama that delivers a powerful story with exceptional acting and a captivating script. With its emotional depth and strong performances, it's easy to see why it has become a fan favorite and a must-watch for those who enjoy dramas of this genre.
